At Trine you'll see that learning is never some static thing. It's what challenges and inspires us all at once. When we talk "academics," it's more than a word. It has no limits. And since we were founded, it never has.

Travel to any small, private college in America and you're unlikely to find another that, on football Saturdays, brings the game ball to midfield by helicopter. Or has a championship golf course that's hosted PGA events and NCAA national championships right on campus. Or offers residence halls and apartment-style campus housing that feel more like a vacation resort than a university dorm. At Trine, you will.

Being a member of the nation′s oldest collegiate athletic conference, the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA), seeing over 600 student athletes participate in 21 varsity sports, and having some of the finest facilities to field exciting NCAA Division III competitive events is what makes Trine athletes know their college experience will be something they will remember the rest of their lives.

At Trine, our commitment to excellence has formed the bedrock of our experience for well over a century. You'll see it, and you'll feel it, the second you step on our beautiful, 450-acre campus in Angola, Indiana.
